Loglizer is a machine learning-based log analysis toolkit for automated anomaly detection.
Loglizer是一款基于AI的日志大数据分析工具, 能用于自动异常检测、智能故障诊断等场景
Logs are imperative in the development and maintenance process of many software systems. They record detailed runtime information during system operation that allows developers and support engineers to monitor their systems and track abnormal behaviors and errors. Loglizer provides a toolkit that implements a number of machine-learning based log analysis techniques for automated anomaly detection.

The log analysis framework for anomaly detection usually comprises the following components:
- Log collection: Logs are generated at runtime and aggregated into a centralized place with a data streaming pipeline, such as Flume and Kafka.
- Log parsing: The goal of log parsing is to convert unstructured log messages into a map of structured events, based on which sophisticated machine learning models can be applied. The details of log parsing can be found at our logparser project.
- Feature extraction: Structured logs can be sliced into short log sequences through interval window, sliding window, or session window. Then, feature extraction is performed to vectorize each log sequence, for example, using an event counting vector.
- Anomaly detection: Anomaly detection models are trained to check whether a given feature vector is an anomaly or not.

cd loglizer
pip install -r requirements.txt# Load HDFS dataset. If you would like to try your own log, you need to rewrite the load function.
